The Frame

Today I tried to take a bit of a look at the serial number, just to get see what year it was from. The guy I bought it from bought the bike new in 1999, which probably in effect means that the frame was made 1998. Curiosity got the better of me so I tried to read the serial number, which was a bit hard to read directly since it was covered up with dirt and the plastic gear cable guide.

A bit of dismantling and cleaning soon revealed the Serial Number. Unfortunately the first digit is rather difficult to read and that it the Year digit.

I took a few photos of the serial, so I'll see if I can enhance it in photoshop.

I probably should not post the serial number online... so I'll let my paranoia rule in this case.
